Spain is most definately on the map for ISIS

Not only is it a 'soft' target for tourists, they also have a major issue with how the Spanish dealt with Arabs historically and seek revenge for this.

I was in Madrid last weekend and the policing is visible to say the least.

Spain is well aware of the threat it faces even if it hasn't made it into the media here just yet.

Been once! It's Blackpool with sunshine...

No great enthusiasm to return again if I'm being honest!

Benidorm is nice to visit. Go and visit the old town. Yes I agree it has tacky parts. New town...go and visit Marianos for food and Yorkshire pride food and drinks. Out of town the city is great Alicante is amazing plus a village called calpe on the outskirts of Benidorm. Plenty of hidden gems around

Never fancied it. Never been on a resort holiday. I can't abide the English abroad. I go on holiday for peace & quiet and to escape from everyday life.

I don't want pissed up Brits anywhere near me.

Used to own a property outside Benidorm, near a place called Altea.

If you want great entertainment and bars, you cant wrong with Benidorm, esp the old town.

Next towns along, Calpe, Altea where lots of celebs live

Plus Benidorm has one of the best beaches in Europe.

we "hated" places like Benidorm - until we actually went and tried it for ourselves.

Old Town - you are in "Spain" and you will know it - no British Bars or Stags and Hens !!!

New Town - you are in Benidorm - Stags and Hens and stacks of people enjoying themselves day and night !

We "do both" - end of night we end up at the New Town for good music and a laugh !

We were snobs that "didnt do Benidorm" - we tried it and enjoyed it so much we have been back a few times !!

Well said GLA.

The place is great and you can get a mix of all things. The entertainment is amazing, it's always friendly and fun and I've never seen any trouble.

Great place to relax and have fun. Been 3 times on my own and loved it.
